Comparison between Turkish personal endings and possessive endings

    Personal endings          Possessive endings

-im                                        -im
      -sin                                        -in        
 /                                         -i
      -iz                                          -imiz  
-siniz                                      -iniz
   -ler                                        -leri  

Just a quick comparison so that I won't confuse them. Personal endings are a bit like conjugated copula ('to be'), except that Turkish really doesn't use it most of the time, and there is a lexical verb olmak to mean 'to be' already.
